I come here super often and bring my friends to try their burgers 🤗 amazing food, always fresh, they have gluten free options too, and I LOVE their sweet potato fries!! Cannot recommend this spot enough.
I was really excited to go here for the gluten free options.i wasn't super impressed..tried the gf avocado toast. It was kinda tough, dry toast on a bed of lettuce. Super noisy if you're going for a conversation.

I'm gluten-free, and Bono's has the best gluten-free options. Whether I'm in the mood for pasta or pizza, they have me covered. My non gluten free family members love it as well. It's great for take out, but it's also good for eating in. It's small and the atmosphere is nothing special, but the food more than makes up for it! Don't forget to try dessert. My favorite is the chocolate mousse!
Service is excellent and the food is PHENOMENAL!! Everything is made to order fresh ingredients and unique flavors. Also, if you are gluten sensitive... they've got you covered!! Their gluten friendly dough is awesome, and the deep dish is unbelievably good.
Be sure to ask about their pizza of the month!
This place is great! Especially if you have Celiac Disease or are gluten-free. The food was delicious, probably the best hummus I have ever had and the falafel was incredible. The serving sizes were plentiful - I am eating the rest of mine for lunch today. Our server was so sweet and attentive. This place truly provided a wonderful experience. I will have to come back before leaving CO!
Stopped in here for my first time to grab a quick bite to eat & ended up being really pleased with my decision. The service was great & all the employees were really friendly. I was delighted with how many gluten free options were on the menu as well. The Huckleberry lemonade cocktail was nothing short of spectacular 🍋🍹
Warm atmosphere and professional and hospitable service. The pizza was delicious. The gluten free is a pizza that depends on the palate but everything was very good.
They have fabulous regular and gluten free pizza and provide great service for our daughter with Celiac Disease. Our only regret is that they don’t have more locations!
Great food. Great spice levels. Great atmosphere. They have several choices of breakfast burritos with vegan options too. You can get any burrito made as a bowl for gluten free options. Good beer and cocktail selections also. Oh, the house chips and salsa are the bomb too.
Went here last night and the food was great! I had the baked half chicken and it was the best baked chicken I’ve ever had. There are a ton of gluten free options. I also had the artichoke dip which was great. Service was amazing, wish I could call out the server.
Disappointed in the gluten-free poke bowl options but they did a have separate paper to look at to understand the GF choices. It would be to have all GF options marked on the online menu. I had the Bahn Mi bowl, which was delicious.
I have Celiac, I know I can eat safely at Outback and the food is always delicious. Staff is always helpful when asked for the Gluten Free menu and respectful of my needs. Great Service
Disappointing gluten free pizza. I ordered a gluten free meatzza pizza. I know the gluten free pizzas are only 10 inches but I expected more toppings on the specialty pizza. It only weighed 14.25 ounces. The middle was doughy and uncooked as well.
Visited here for a large group lunch - great spot that fit us all (~15) - as a Celiac, I enjoyed the gluten free Shrimp and Grits. Along with the candied bacon appetizer. Others in my group (without allergy restrictions) enjoyed the grilled chicken Mac n’ cheese, the green chili soup, fried cheese curds, and Dr. Pepper.
This restaurant has a variety of options to choose from. They also had plenty of gluten free options (even dessert!). We sat on the patio and could see the water. Our waiter was very attentive. The meal and dessert was delicious!
We were so happy to find this little gem of a coffee shop while traveling. The coffee was outstanding and the specialty drinks were superb! We especially appreciated the house made treats….raspeberry/lemon loaf (Gluten-free, YAY!) and the blueberry/walnut loaf…exceptionally tasty, not overly sweetened and served warm to perfection! The staff was exceptionally friendly and the ambiance fresh and inviting. We loved the boards too…incredibly artistic!!! We will definitely be returning customers! Many thanks!!!
Delicious! Lots of gluten free options. (Everything was GF, except for the things you know wouldn’t be, like the rolls) they even have an allergen info sheet by register.
Great family owned restaurant that has been there for over 40 years. Miguel knows every customer's name and makes you feel at home. Love the guac and chips. They have gluten free options too.
Excellent experience before a Red Rocks show. Vegetarian & celiac friendly. Great drink and food options for everyone. Perfect service and an amazing view!
Cute gem of a place. Delicious food. Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of dietary restrictions/needs. Lots of yummy dairy free and gluten free options available.
Family friendly restaurant with lots of high chairs and actual changing tables in the restroom.
10/10 recommend.
I never write reviews, but with this place I HAD TO. I have no words for how amazing my sandwich was. I wanted to go back and get another one immediately. I have celiac and they were very cautious to make my sandwich gluten free, which made my day. This place made my first time in Golden the best!🫶🏼 (I ate my sandwich so fast I couldn’t get a picture)
This review is intended to help people not have really stale gluten free bagels. I'm sure if you're not gluten free you will have a great experience. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere is nice. My coffee was good too.
Why 2 stars ? It was my only day in the area and I wanted to go on a hike, so I stopped at this cute place to get a good breakfast. I took my gluten-free bagel sandwich to where I was going to hike and when I tried to eat it it was almost impossible. The bread was just so stale. I know gluten-free bread sometimes tastes stale to people but I've been gluten free for over a decade and this bread was really bad.
SO DELICIOUS!!!! The Golden Pineapple is my favorite so far. I chose it to help during an RA flair so much anti-inflammatory goodness! I also enjoyed the “Immunity shot.” It’s got quite a kick, I added some honey to mine. I can’t wait to taste more! They are also establishing gluten free protocols for their avocado toast and smoothies! Great people, beautiful atmosphere, and SO DELICIOUS!! Oh, and easy parking! You also get a discount when you bring the glass bottle back.
This place is fantastic! We went on a Sunday and got amazing service even though they were incredibly busy. We got the Breakfast sandwich and were able to sub in Gluten Free bread for someone in our party that has Celiac’s. Also got the Brisket Sausage Benedict, which was really good. And the hash browns were nice and crispy, and not greasy. Got the Iced Chai too, and that was really good. The prices are probably the most surprising part, being one of the most affordable places around. This is definitely a place I’ll be returning to often
Food was delicious including the gluten free chicken tenders. The dog loved hanging out on the deck where the staff brought him a water bowl. Amazing view and reasonably priced food made for a great experience. We will be back.
I was so disappointed with the food. My soup had a single piece of chicken, just ONE. 60% of it was gristle/fat and I threw it away. It was so bad I took a photo. The sandwich had the same issue, it was the tasty croc and I removed multiple pieces of diced slimy chicken fatty material. I only ate about half the sandwich, because it grossed me out when I had to pull fatty pieces from my mouth. I didn't take a picture of it but maybe I should have. Felt physically ill when I got done eating and I attribute that to the oiliness of the chicken and rice soup, which coated my mouth.
Today was my first visit to Croc Coup, and despite the fact they have 5 gluten free soup options, along with gluten free bread.... I won't be returning. Further, my co-worker got a wrap and it was almost all lettuce and very thin on the meat. I think we will stick with Jimmy Johns or Jason's Deli in the future.
this was once an old parlor.i remember much of golden as it was 40 years ago.
my kids and i were meandering down to the library today and were maybe going to backtrack to the windy saddle when we saw the denver biscuit company. i thought they might go in further down washington but they are here.
much to my utter shock these guys have a self serve coffee station. this business gets it coffee nowadays is best left taken care by the person drinking it.
we are gluten and dairy free but the denver biscuit company was worth the 2 or 3 hours after being sick. the biscuits are divine and just plain cozy! we had biscuits and gravy and it just me back to a time when my late husband and i would hop in the truck and go to town to get biscuits and gravy. thank you denver biscuit company.
